In 2017, LaVar Ball erupted in the sports media scene with his eldest son Lonzo Balls? arrival at the NBA combine. His dream was to have his 3 sons play for the Lakers. But a lot has changed since then. Two of his sons are in the NBA, but not in the Lakers team. And ESPN has banned him on account of his issue with Molly Querim. Yet, he is as boisterous as ever in his interview with Vlad TV.
Before unleashing his anger on Stephen A. Smith, LaVar rekindles his claim of being better than the Goat. This interview gives us an unabashed LaVar Ball after a long time.

LaVar Ball is a confident reality TV star. His Big Baller league gained a following because of his confidence and his attitude towards his sons. As Lonzo was in the league, his other two sons played for his team, and they were at the receiving end of LaVar’s anger many times. In Vlad TV’s interview, we got to see LaVar’s angry avatar once again when the discussion shifted about Stephen A. Smith.
LaVar got all fired up and his rage was on full display as he called Stephen A, ?a $3 bill,? which inferred that the ESPN’s sports celebrity was a liar and a fake.
LaVar went on to describe that Stephen A. would ridicule him in his videos, only to “backpedal” towards the end by calling him a good father.

LaVar Ball?s sons
Except for LiAngelo, his other 2 sons, Lonzo and LaMelo, are in the NBA. Lonzo is with the Chicago Bulls. Though everybody thinks very highly about Lonzo’s talent, it is his availability that is in question all the time. Lonzo’s injury-laden career is wasting away his prime. And LaMelo is with the Hornets, and according to many NBA experts, he is one of the best young point guards in the League. And the Hornets are showing their faith in him by extending a rookie max contract to him.
Coming back to LiAngelo, LaVar always said that his middle son was the best among his 3 kids in terms of basketball talent. Yet he is languishing in a G-League team trying to make it to the NBA.
